Sharks’ Stuart Suspended for Elbow on Rangers’ Nash

The Sharks defenseman has been suspended for three games for elbowing Rangers winger Rick Nash. The incident happened just over two minutes into the first period of an eventual Sharks’ 9-2 blowout victory. Nash attempted to come back but managed just 5:33 of ice time in the game, none in the third period.

Here’s the official ruling from the league:

Stuart will forfeit three games of his $3.6 million salary, which amounts to $131,707.
